Hey brother, 11 years after you made this video you just helped me change the master clutch cylinder in my 92 Honda Civic. I bought this car nine years ago for $1500 And thanks to people like you she’s still on the road in 2022. God bless you and thank you again

Have a 99 civic EX that just lost pressure in the clutch pedal. I watched this vid and found the master cylinder was leaking same as the one in the video. Bought a new one and followed your instructions to install. Now the pedal is in working order and the car is shifting smoothly. Saved me a ton of cash and only took about an hour and a half to finish. Can't tell you how grateful I am for the great video, Thank you so much for uploading!

There's a spring that returns the clutch pedal to its normal position when you release. If you look under the dash at the point where the clutch pedal pivots, you should see the springt. Its common for it to get rusty and make springy noises. A quick shot of WD-40 or whatever lubricant you have should fix it. Be careful not to lubricate the pedal pads or your feet might slip off next time you're driving. Hope this helps

The master clutch cylinder went on my 2000 Honda Civic yesterday; it was leaking fluid into the footwell. Before today, the most advanced auto work I'd ever done was changing the oil and front disc brakes. I was able to replace both the master and slave cylinders in about 5 hours using your video in conjunction with the shop manual. The manual is helpful, but the pointers and tips in your video saved me a ton of time, frustration and busted up knuckles! Thank you so much!!!

I have a 2006 scion tc and my clutch hydraulics some how got a lot of air into the system and ended up replacing the clutch master and slave cylinders. We bled the system with a somewhat different method from a forum online and could not manage to get all the air out and of course due to that could not get my clutch to disengage properly. But after watching this video and then applying what I learned from Eric the Car Guy I was able to properly bleed the system and now my car drives and shifts awesome. So I just wanted to compliment and thank you for posting this video because you helped me out greatly and got me back on the road again. So thank you very much for all you do for us DIY people out here that sometimes need help from much more experienced people like you.

TO EVERYONE WATCHING THIS- I had clutch problems that resembled a bad clutch or bad hydraulics. I spent $200 replacing the hydraulics. while doing that, I noticed the mount for the clutch pedal had cracked, and was bending when I applied the pedal. I ordered a new pedal with the mount for less than $100 and changed it out in 15 minutes. It completely fixed it. CHECK THE PEDAL MOUNT BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING. If it's broken, it's easy to see and and easy fix

@ericthecarguy and anyone who has a hard time getting a pedal: I had the same issue with going back and forth and then having my father keep putting the pedal up and down as I opened the bleeder (I thought I had a crack in the line). After a stupid amount of attempts and a night of sleep, I thought to when I bleed the brakes (I keep pumping them until I get a pedal, then I have someone hold the pedal firmly as I open the bleeder). I did this method on the clutch; I pumped the clutch with my hand like a mad man (leaving the fluid to the max line and the top off the reservoir) I was able to get a pedal and saw small air bubbles rise to the top of the reservoir. After that I put a vacuum on the bleeder, I had my dad hold the pedal down and open the bleeder and vacuumed and repeated this about three times, until I had to keep adding fluid and as my vacuum tank was filling.

You left out the clutch hose! I know it rarely ever goes out, but mine did, and it's nice to have a reference point if it Needs replaced. Also, your coke bottle idea is only geneous if you explain how gravity helps it work. You don't have to run around closing/opening bleeder screws. Just keep fluid in the top and submerge the hose in the bottle and pump away til the bottle has enough fluid run through to it. Then tighten the screw and pump the clutch a couple times. The air will be gone and all is well and under proper pressure.

Given that they are a known issue you might consider swapping them if you are going to flush the system anyway.

me and my friend have changed a decent amount of transmissions and the most common problem is after getting the trans back , the clutch is spongey and or it goes right to the floor. some cars have resoivors for the slave cylinder and others like (audi) there is no resivors for the slave because it goes in with the brake resivor. like to bleed the clutch you pour the fluid (wich is brake fluid) into the master cylender and use a little hand pump to get out the exess air. the one thing that drives me crazy is that dumbass companys use plastic slave cylenders and those little plastic pieces that screw onto the transmission to bleed it, those things are junk. oh and those stupid little clips that hold the slave cylender line to the slave. like when you put the line in and you put that clip to hold into place.. those are a pain in the ass and its almost impossible to bend a paper clip to work..

Another great video. I usually manage to get away with "pre-filling" hydraulic components to avoid the need for bleeding. Before filling the cylinder check you can get it into place without moving the rod or tipping it etc. Then fill component on the bench and fit the plastic plugs that came with it then fit it. Just think about fluid, gravity and air and it is usually possible to replace any component with almost no bleeding at all. Afterwards open the bleed screw and let it drip....done

Just watched this vid before changing out my '99 Honda Civic HX clutch & master cylinders-very helpful. First time doing this job for me. Job went smoothly. Thank you!

@panzerster It's probably going out your tailpipe. To be honest a brand new car burns oil during prolonged high speed driving, it just gets worse over time as the engine wears out. In Japan they make you replace your engine about every 45K for this very reason.

Like many other people I want to say thank you for this video. My clutch went out on my 2000 civic one morning, and even tho i was able to get to work, i had to replace it in my work parking lot. Thanks to your video i knew exactly what to do. So again thank you! (also do more civic videos :D)

@foxja2002 Make sure the ball on the salve cylinder is properly placed in the shift fork, that's the first thing that came to mind when reading your comment. Good luck.
